There is no answer because first to get a good answer you would need to be more precise. I weight 130 ponds, my first Ebike came with 3.0x27.5 on 40 mm. I just started enjoying expert trails. I do benefit from the extra grip of 3..0 and it keeps my BB as intended by the designer so i will not go...
Thanks a lot. I agree most Ebikes should offer a smaler ratio. Mine has 20 speeds, day 1 i switched from cassette 11-36 to 11-42. Without a car i pedal to the trails and back so it adds up.
I am curious if you can share some details. How many kms have you done sofar? Yamaha? Is this a 2016? Is this a + bike? Is your battery 500 Wh? A few months back i got an unsold 2017, now allmost 3,300 kms trouble free. A pic and specs of mine...
Your weight may have an effect, some bad luck, the construction, many manufacturers offer 6 different variations of a model, 60/120 TPI, with or without protection, different compounds. A softer grippier coumpound last less generaly. Do you ride on asphalt? Many are good for a season 6-8 months...
I suggest you check that cassette regularly. If you pick up some branch some wood might get between the cogs and that might shorten his life. I use a knife to clean the mess between the cogs when needed. Also turn your chain with motor off, listen to make sure your chain is not rubbing like not...
I ask some questions directly via email at the manufacturer. Here people meaning well might be wrong. A 2.5 2019 might be different than 1 or 2 year before. Many manufacturers started to modified their construction. There might other appellation but some use WT like wide thread.

It is a bit of a tricky question in my opinion. Many manufacturers offered/are offering different models, so what model from what manufacturer?? Also to have a winner a game needs rules, what are the rules? My experience with Ebikes is limited. I wanted reliable and range. I recently found an...
I agree in my area Maxxis has a large share and they Are Expensive. I got mine in exchange of other tires. We call that shelve advantage. At the pharmacy you will find tylenol for back pain and 6 other variety(the same shit, different color) so they push away the competition. Same with beers...
In the past 2 years different well knowned and respected brands seems to have produced ** a bad batch** I had a tire loose the round form. My LBS had an expression for that but i forgot. They replaced it on the rim, it was less bad. About 2 weeks of riding and the weird feeling was gone.
I am on 2 Maxxis with no problem whatsoever. In fact i am planning on buying more maxxis. Maybe a different TPI or a different compound would serve you better. From my experience i can only recommand Maxxis. From prior bikes i was also happy on Continental. If mud is rare in your area look at...
Early this season i felt real slow but hurt 1 hand. After that it was about 2 weeks of fire roads allmost using only 1 hand. Our body heals but we need to give it a chance. Happy trails/roads.
